I finally got to take a look at the Eleganza that was for sale just north of Springfield, MO on Craigslist, way back in Feb, as I recall.
This fire happened with the coach in it's garage, under the owners house. He was doing something at the dash or behind the dash, and all of the sudden there was a fire in the engine room. The coach was not running. He got the fire out but the entire top deck of the engine is fried. The distributor is melted. The drivers side windshield is scorched, as well as most of the headliner. I think the engine was fairly fresh. The coach has about 120k on it, mileage wise. I don't know if this thing is a rescue mission waiting to happen or a parts coach, or what....
I had gotten some PM's on this and finally got around to looking at it.
